Quick Beta questions.

January 28, 2008 4:33:37 PM from Sins of a Solar Empire ForumsSins of a Solar Empire Forums
I haven't been able to find anything with the search engine, so I'll ask here:
If I do the buy through TGN with tokens thing, is there currently a beta for me to take part in, and if so how much longer will it even be up?
Will there be a continuing beta after release to test patches, or is the beta at this point pretty much a sneak peek at an older version of the final game with no actual testing function?

Yes, there is still a beta for... 7 days

Doubt it, Just a sneak peek.

ok, related question> If I buy with tokens now, will I be able to get the Collectors Edition down the road or is it pre-order only?

there's an option where you pay a media fee and S+H later, and they'll sell CE's till they run out, so you can get it.

well if this game sells as well as I hope it does, those CEs won't last long.

I'm pretty sure that enough of the beta players would get pissy if that happened that it won't.

You hear that Yarlen?

Don't quote me on this but I don't think that you can order a physical copy with tokens... not positive about that though. I'd just preorder. Kinda silly to get in on the beta now with only a week until release.

can't get a physical copy with tokens. If you preordered with tokens, there's a complicated deal they set up, but you should just preorder the CE.

If you pre-ordered the digital download only (regardless of using PayPal, Tokens or a Credit Card), we will offer you - on launch day - the ability to upgrade to the boxed version for $5 plus S&H.
